The Game Happy 40th to Me ... I'm Retiring as a Legend!!!

The Game
TIME TO ENJOY RETIREMENT
TMZ.com

The Game is officially out of the game ... according to the rapper himself who celebrated his 40th birthday and his retirement on the same night.

We got Game Friday night outside the Sunset Room in Hollywood where he was NOT feeling his oats. Game told us 40 isn't feeling all that old ... due to his diet. Still, he acknowledged he's damn lucky to have lived into his 4th decade.

We'll admit it ... we might have soured the birthday guy's night a little by asking him about his homie, Wack 100's recent comment that Nipsey Hussle shouldn't be considered a legend. Watch the clip, because Game makes it 100 percent clear ... Wack doesn't speak for him.

Now, if you want to give him the legend label -- Game's cool with that, and told us he's satisfied with his stats, so, "it's time to live a little." He's hinted at it before, but last night he stated strongly ... he IS retiring.

As for the Nipsey "legend" question ... we did get Wack heading into the bash, and he was happy to explain why he said what he said.

Wack said it's nothing personal, it's just about numbers -- and, in his eyes, that's all that determines a
WHAT MAKES A LEGEND?
TMZ.com

He said it's nothing personal, it's just about numbers -- and, in his eyes, that's all that determines a "legend." Wack says Nip just wasn't around long enough but believes he would have gotten to the level of Game, Dr. Dre and Kendrick Lamar.

And, for the haters, he had a very direct message ... truth.

Oscar De La Hoya Belts 'La Bamba' On Stage ... Impromptu Performance

Oscar De la Hoya
A LITTLE GRACE FOR YOU
TMZSports.com

And the Grammy goes to ... not Oscar De La Hoya.

The boxing legend and Golden Boy honcho decided to show off his pipes with a rendition of the classic Ritchie Valens hit, "La Bamba" ... and TMZ Sports has the hilarious video!!!

We're told ODLH had some time to kill at the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino after the Cancio and Alvarado fight over the weekend ... so he took the stage in the Twelfth Floor Lounge and told the guitarists to start jammin'.

Look, no one's expecting Oscar to have the voice of an angel ... but the dude put his heart into the damn thing and it looks like he's having the time of his life.

Unclear how the audience reacted ... but we're told Oscar's always welcome back for an encore performance if he wants!

Rob Gronkowski Dances His Face Off At Dallas Bar ... Parties With His Bros!!!

Gronk Dancing Thanksgiving Eve
GRONK GONNA GRONK
TMZSports.com

Rob Gronkowski is taking his traveling dance party on the road ... this time he's tearing it up in Dallas and ya gotta see his new moves!!!

Check out this amazing video of Gronk owning the dance floor at Chill Bar & Grill outside Dallas ... he's dancing his face off in the middle of an open circle, and the crowd LOVES IT!!!

Gronk can hold it down on his own, but a few of his brothers eventually jump in and start dancing with the former NFL stud.

Gronk's bros Chris and Glenn live in the Dallas area, so we're guessing he's in town to visit family for Thanksgiving. Oh, and there's a pretty big NFL game in town too.

After working up a sweat on the dance floor, Gronk eventually hopped behind the DJ booth to get on the 1s and 2s. Folks in the bar tell us he and his crew were having a helluva time all night.

Remember, Gronk was in Los Angeles last week, hitting the hardwood and dancing with the Laker Girls alongside Venus Williams and James Corden.

Where will Gronk's dance party show up next?!?

Tyler Cameron Hooks Up w/ Mystery Blonde ... Might be Kylie's Hot Friend

Tyler C Stassi?
GETTIN' CLOSE IN THE CLUB
TMZ.com

Tyler Cameron went from Hannah Brown to Gigi Hadid, and now ... on to possibly one of Kylie Jenner's best friends. Talk about a hot streak, huh?

The former 'Bachelorette' contestant and heartthrob model was in L.A. Friday, catching the Clippers game at Staples Center and then later ... hitting up the club in WeHo.

TMZ obtained footage of Ty getting close to a smokin' hot blonde in Hyde, whom he later wrapped up in his big hunky arms and brought in for a kiss -- maybe a butt grab too. There's no question it's him playing Romeo, but the big question is ... who's Juliet.

Stassi Karanikolaou
EARLIER THAT DAY

Based on some circumstantial evidence we've combed through, it appears this might very well be Kylie's good pal Anastasia Karanikolaou ... otherwise known on IG as Stassiebaby.

She's in Kylie's circle of friends and often tags along for girls' trips across the world with KJ and co. More importantly though, she was also at the Clippers game last night in a private box -- and appears to have been wearing something very similar to our mystery chick here.

At least from the upper half,  anyway ... which seems to resemble Stassie's outfit for the night. Besides that, eyewitnesses are telling us it definitely looked like AK to them. Our sources say Tyler and this gal showed up together around midnight, grabbed a table and were pretty much inseparable the whole time until they left around 1:30 AM.

If it is Stassie, Tyler sure knows how to pick 'em. Take a gander through this gallery, and you'll understand what we're talkin' about.

Post Malone I Won $50K Playing Beer Pong!!!

Post Malone likes to raise the stakes when he plays beer pong ... and he went home a huge winner after sinking some cups with a ton of dough on the line!!!

Here's the deal ... Post challenged his up-and-coming artist, Tyla Yaweh, to a $50,000 game of pong before their Wednesday night concert at The Forum in Los Angeles ... and Posty came out on top.

The high-stakes drinking game during the concert pre-party drew a huge celeb crowd ... with Billy Idol, Rich The Kid, Niall Horan, Mike Stud and Diplo hanging around the table as Tyla and Posty went back and forth.

The beer pong game came down to the wire, and when the dust settled, the "Beerbongs and Bentleys" rapper was $50k richer. Not a bad way to make some money.

And unlike Post's $20k NFL playoff wager with YG, this bet didn't take 9 months to collect ... Tyla sent Posty the dough over Cash App right after Post sank the last cup.

'Rocketman' Star Taron Egerton Living It Up In the Dominican Republic ... My 30th Birthday Bash!!!

Taron Egerton is celebrating his 30th in a style the real Elton John would definitely approve of -- chillin' in a luxury oceanfront villa with his GF, while getting awesome news.

The "Rocketman" star marked 30 years of life in the Dominican Republic ... sparing no expense and staying in a 5-bedroom villa at the Casa de Campo Resort that goes for a cool $10,000 a night. Taron and his GF, director Emily Thomas, spent a whole week lounging.

Taron was still on the island when he found out he was nominated for a Grammy for the "Rocketman" soundtrack -- he covered a bunch of Elton's biggest hits for the biopic.

Check out the gallery ... Taron's villa is pretty amazing. The island paradise has breathtaking views and it's right next to the world-renowned Teeth of the Dog golf course. But, best of all ... comes with a butler! It's not really a birthday if a butler doesn't bring your cake.

Taron and Emily had a pretty active week ... going ziplining, playing tennis and snorkeling with nurse sharks and stingrays during a catamaran ride along the coastline.

Casa de Campo's also hosted Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Jay-Z, Justin Bieber, Pitbull, Pharrell Williams, plus Kanye West and the Kardashians.

Post Malone I Love a Morning Hooters Party!!! (Yes, Even on Mondays)

Post Malone Swae
BEER BONGS AND HOOTERS
TMZ.com

Post Malone is celebrating the final leg of his tour in the most Posty way possible ... by renting out Hooters to chug beer and rip cigs with his boys!!!

We got the "Rockstar" rapper outside the world-famous Hooters on Hollywood Blvd bright and early Monday morning ... sipping a cold brew (not coffee) and bumming a cigarette after spending some quality time inside the wing joint with his buds and a solo Hooters waitress.

The family restaurant normally opens at 11 AM, but when you're Post Malone and you decide you want wings and things to kick off your Monday morning, you make a few calls, pull a few strings and get the place to yourself!!!

Post tells us he rented out the Hooters to celebrate life and the final 2 shows of his tour ... but he must want to keep the party going. Live Nation just announced a 2nd leg of his tour that extends into 2020.

Speaking of touring, Post explained why he's only been performing with one half of Rae Sremmurd in Swae Lee. Don't worry Slim Jxmmi fans ... it's nothing personal.

LeBron James Sippin' $3K Cognac ... With Anthony Davis

The team that drinks super expensive, rare cognac together ... wins titles together??

Los Angeles Lakers hope so, 'cause LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Dwight Howard, DeMarcus Cousins and Rajon Rondo sipped on the $3,000 a bottle Louis XIII at a fancy L.A. hotel this weekend.

The All-Star studded private dinner went down Saturday night at Mr. C Beverly Hills ... and it was all to celebrate AD gracing the cover of Haute Living magazine.

H.L. and XO hosted the event and invited all AD's superstar teammates ... and his agent, Rich Paul.

There was (very, very expensive) booze ... but there wasn't any crazy turn up this time.

We're told the Lakers stars sipped on Louis XIII ... but all left before 10 PM 'cause they had a game Sunday night against the Hawks.

The Lakers -- 11-2 for the season and in 1st place -- won the game easily, 122-101.

So yeah, no hangover here.

Tyga Yeah, I Got a Type

Tyga's undeniably got game ... and you don't have to go further than this pic for proof.

Kylie Jenner's ex was leaving Delilah restaurant in WeHo Saturday night in a fire engine red Ferrari and a beautiful woman riding shotgun. Is it just us or does she resemble Kylie in a big way?

Several people at Delilah -- including our photog -- tell us Kylie was also there, but we have no evidence of that. The 2 were seen together at Hyde nightclub on the Sunset Strip last month, fueling rumors they were getting back together. They were also in Vegas together at the end of Summer. Hard to know ... but based on the photo it sure looks like Tyga's moved on.

Kaia Gerber, Pete Davidson Hook Up After 'SNL'

Pete Davidson and Kaia Gerber sure seem like a couple ... of course they're a couple, and if there was any doubt, check out the photos.

A photog got the two turning in for the night -- 3:30 AM to be exact -- after Pete assumed the role of Michael Avenatti on "Saturday Night Live."

BTW ... Pete turned 26 Saturday, so his 18-year-old GF hit up the famed Magnolia Bakery in the West Village and scooped up a large, round birthday cake and banana pudding.

They entered her apartment together at 3:30 AM after his SNL performance and after-party in New York.

They've been pretty much inseparable for about a month. The first time we saw them together was at a New York City restaurant on Oct. 24.

Jamie Foxx & Kate Beckinsale Cozy Up At Party ... But Not As a Couple

UPDATE

2:56 PM PT -- Kate just responded to the pics, making it clear she's VERY single, saying, "I would like to point out that standing next to someone does not mean I am dating them. Currently in line at the dry cleaners and if that's true I've got a hell of a problem."

Jamie Foxx couldn't keep his hands off Kate Beckinsale at a fancy party ... and the timing is interesting considering both are recently single.

Jamie and Kate looked pretty comfortable with each other Thursday night at Catch LA, dressed to the nines for a Golden Globe Ambassadors party in West Hollywood. Jamie's got his arm around Kate's lower back, and she's pushing right up against his body.

Sure, they did the thing where ya take a couple of pics with other friends, including Tyrese -- some call that cover -- but Kate and Jamie stayed close together, even in the group shots.

The cozy pics have some folks wondering if there's something brewing between Jamie and Kate. They certainly LOOK like they would make a great couple.

TMZ broke the story ... Kate is no longer married to Len Wiseman -- earlier this month a family law judge made their divorce official.

Jamie's back in the single lane too ... he split from Katie Holmes this summer after 6 years of dating.

A DANGEROUS DUO
Luke Williams/ohioisonfire

Travis Scott fans got more than they bargained for Saturday night ... because Kanye West appeared on stage and performed for the crowd.

Travis headlined the Astroworld Festival in Houston, and in the middle of his set, Kanye appeared and performed his new single, "Follow God," off his 9th studio album, "Jesus is King."

The concert was huge ... 50,000 people packed NRG Park.

Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival just opened its gates, and fans literally could not wait to get inside -- stampeding past each other ... which Trav seemed to appreciate. 11/9/19
FAN FRENZY

Fans went nuts, climbing barricades and stampeding into the venue. The Houston-based rapper posted the video earlier Saturday. Three people were taken to a nearby hospital and treated for leg injuries after being trampled.

Other performers included Gucci Mane, Migos, Megan Thee Stallion, Young Thug, Marilyn Manson and Pharrell Williams.

As for Kanye ... he has another Sunday Service at The Forum in Inglewood at 2 PM.

Kim Kardashian Birthday Surprise For Kris ... Lunch At Our Old House!!!

Kris Jenner
BIRTHDAY SURPRISE!!!

Kim Kardashian gave her mother a blast from the past for her birthday ... organizing a super-secret lunch outing at the home where Kris Jenner raised the Kardashian kids.

Kris turned 64 years young Tuesday, and Kim pulled out all the stops to make sure her mom had a very special day ... Kim rented out her parents' old home, and she also rented every car her parents ever owned to get Kris, Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie to their destination.

Kim kept her guests guessing with twists and turns, inviting everyone to the Beverly Hills Hotel and then pulling a switcheroo ... lunch wasn't at the hotel, it was at the old Kardashian home.

Kris started crying when she figured out what was going on, and Kim says everyone was super emotional during their meal. Kris' daughters sang happy birthday as she blew out the candles on a cake decorated as one of her old vanity license plates.

As for the lunch, it looked pretty fancy ... everyone got their own personalized napkins. High-class stuff.

And, in keeping with the throwback theme, Kim recreated the family's old table settings, complete with a landline phone and used their old wallpaper as decor.

Kim says she kept her emotions in check until she went into her old bathroom, closed the door and cried ... and she says everyone felt the presence of their late father, Robert Kardashian.

Happy birthday, Kris!!!

Julio Jones Bahamas Bro Sesh With Roddy White ... Happy Birthday!!!

Roddy White
BAHAMA BIRTHDAY
TMZSports.com

Here's a fun way to escape your 1-7 teammates ...

Julio Jones ditched the Falcons during his squad's bye this weekend ... flying all the way out to the Bahamas to bro down with Roddy White for the ex-ATL star's birthday -- and it looked awesome!!!

The party went down at SLS Baha Mar in Nassau ... with White throwing a cool little get-together at the resort's swanky pool for his 38th.

There was bottle service, signs that spelled out "Roddy" ... and plenty of R&R for Julio before he had to get back to an Atlanta team with no hopes of the playoffs this season.

It's pretty cool that the two NFL studs are still good friends ... Jones and Roddy played together from 2011 to 2015 -- but shared a bond much bigger than just football.

Roddy was instrumental in helping Julio during his first few years in the league ... while 30-year-old Julio was later there for White to help him after he tragically lost his brother in 2014.

"Every day, he called me and checked up on me," White said of Julio at the time to NFL.com. "Asked me how I was doing, came down for the funeral, showed up at the house. You know, that was really, really special to me. I needed him to get through that."

Props to Julio for being a great dude. Now if only Atlanta's defense could step up like that ...

Alex Ovechkin Rides Topless Nationals Staffer ... Insane D.C. Celebration!!!

Washington Capitals, Nationals
WASHINGTON BROMANCE
Washington Nationals

Wanna see Alex Ovechkin get a topless piggyback ride from a husky Washington Nationals staffer?!?!

Good ... 'cause during the insane Nats-Capitals World Series celebration at D.C.'s hockey game Sunday -- Ovi stripped down to bare chest and rode a shirtless Nats BP pitcher around the locker room!!!

The insane scene all went down at Capital One Arena in Washington ... where the Nats continued their weekend-long World Series title celebration with beer and no shirts.

The guys were all over the arena ... they partied in the Caps locker room, they raged in their luxury box -- and they even rode the intermission Zamboni half naked!!

But, the best part of their wild night? After the Caps beat the Calgary Flames, 4-2 ... Nats manager Davey Martinez hooked up Ovi with staffer Ali Modami.

If you're unfamiliar, Modami gained fame earlier this year for giving Brian Dozier a post-home run piggyback ride in the team's dugout.

So, Martinez made him replicate that in the Caps' locker room ... and it was seriously epic!!!

Some other highlights from the party ...

-- After slamming a million Bud Lights, Nats players poured them on fans ... and then signed the empties and threw them to the crowd!!!

-- Adam Eaton hilariously pulled a T.J. Oshie -- drinking a beer right through his Capitals jersey!!!

--The Caps joined in on a post-victory "Baby Shark" dance with the Nationals ... and then sang a little Queen in the locker room!!

Drake is showering himself with expensive gifts for his 33rd birthday ... dropping more than half a million dollars for a custom diamond ring in the shape of a heart.

Sources with knowledge tell TMZ ... the "Hotline Bling" rapper purchased a 22-carat, heart-shaped diamond ring from Gemma Fine Jewelry as a bday present to himself, and the piece is valued between $600,000 and $800,000.

Drake

As you can see, the diamonds are mounted in a platinum setting ... and we're told it's extremely difficult to make a heart-shaped ring of this size -- making this a very rare find.

Drake had his party at Goya Studios ... and attendees included Snoop Dogg, Kylie Jenner and French Montana.

As we reported ... Drake hosted a star-studded birthday bash at Goya Studios in Hollywood, partying with big celebs like Adele, Snoop Dogg, Kylie Jenner and French Montana.

Drake debuted his shiny new bling at the party -- what better occasion, right -- and on another finger he was rocking his customized $150K Toronto Raptors NBA championship ring.

Our sources say Drake was heavily involved in designing his newest ring, working alongside Gemma Fine founder Ori Vechler … and he's adding it to a growing collection of heart-shaped jewelry.

Yes, Drake loves him some Drake.
